Upon being told that the Cherry trees were in bloom at UC Berkeley, I made sure to head over there the very next day and take pictures. What Cherry trees? And, where?

They are located at the Westgate entrance at UC Berkeley. Gardeners’ Guild planted them – thirty-five of them! It is a project to honor UC Berkeley graduates of Japanese ancestry; their contributions to society.

On April 6th at 11:00am there will be a dedication ceremony held at the Westgate entrance.
